Question 18.
How would you explain the fact that first ionisation enthalpy of sodium is lower than that of magnesium but its second ionisation enthalpy is higher than that of magnesium? :
Answer:
The first electron in both the cases has to be removed from 3s-orbitals, but nuclear charge of Na is less than that of Mg. Hence, I.E. of Na is lower than that of Mg.
After the loss of first electron, the electronic configuration ofNa+ is 1s

Molecular orbital configuration:
(b) Be (Atomic number 4) has a total of 4 electrons. Its electronic configuration is Is2 2s2, It has two valence electrons and no lone pair of electrons. Each of the two electrons can form bonds with chlorine atoms. Chemical bonds involve electrons and because all electrons have a negative charge, the two bonds between the Be and Cl will arrange themselves around the central atom (Be) so that the electrons in the bonds are as far apart as possible. Thus, the molecule is linear with the chlorines on opposite sides of the Be.
In case of water, oxygen has a total of 8 electrons, with electronic configuration 1s

. Oxygen has two electron pairs in the outermost shell, as well as two valence electrons available for bonding. The two electrons can form bonds with two single electrons of hydrogen atoms and would like to again form a linear shape. However, the two electrons pairs exert a strong repulsive force on the O — H bonds, distorting like to again form a linear shape. However, the two electrons pairs exert a strong repulsive force on the O — H bonds, distorting them into the bent shape of the water molecule. This shape maximizes the distance between all the electrons surrounding the central oxygen atom. That’s why water molecule is bent in shape.

O(steam) at standard atmospheric pressure.
Answer:
(i) ∆G = ∆H – T∆s + 1.193
= 41.1 – 363 × ∆S
363 × ∆S = 41.1 – 1.193 = 39. 907

Question 27.
Explain why?
(a) Reaction FeSO
4
(aq) + Cu(s) → CuSO
4
(aq) + Fe(s) does not occur.
(b) Zinc can displace copper from aqueous CuSO
4
solution but Ag can not.
(c) Solution of AgNOa turns blue when copper rod is immersed in it.
Answer:
E

Cu

/Cu
= +0.34 V
We know that a metal having more negative value of Ee can displace the metal having less negative or positive value of E
θ
from their salt solution. So, Fe can displace Cu from CuSO
4
solution.
But, in the reaction, it is showing that Cu displaces Fe from FeSO
4
solution which is not feasible.
So, the given reaction does not occur.
(b) E

/Ag

Similarly, Zn has negative E
θ
and Cu has positive E
θ
. So, zinc can displace copper from aqueous CuSO
4
solution. But silver has higher positive value of Ee than Cu, so, Ag cannot displace Cu from CuS04 solution.
(c) Cu has lesser E θ than Ag. So, copper can displace Ag from AgNO 3 solution due to which the solution turns blue.
Question 28.
Why do alkenes prefer to undergo electrophilic addition reaction while arenes prefer electrophilic substitution reaction? Explain.
Answer:
Due to the presence of a p-electron cloud above and below the plane of alkenes and arenes, these are electron rich molecules and, therefore, provide sites for the attack of electrophiles. Hence, they undergo electrophilic reactions. Alkenes undergo electrophilic addition reactions because they are unsaturated molecules.
Arenes, on the other hand, cannot undergo electrophilic addition reactions. This is because benzene has a large resonance energy of 150.4 kj mol -1 . During electrophilic addition reactions, two new s-bonds are formed but the aromatic character of benzene gets destroyed and, therefore, resonance energy of benzene ring is lost. Hence, electrophilic addition reactions of arenes are not energetically favourable. Arenes, in contrast, undergo electrophilic substitution reactions in which s C – H bond is broken and new s C – X bond is formed: The aromatic character of benzene ring is not destroyed and benzene retains its resonance energy. Hence, arenes undergo electrophilic substitution reactions.

The following questions are case -based questions. Each question has an internal choice and carries 4 (1 +1+2) marks each. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
Question 29.
Read the following passage and answer the following questions:
James Maxwell (1870) suggested that when electrically charged particle moves under acceleration, alternating electrical and magnetic fields are produced and transmitted. These fields are transmitted in the form of waves called electromagnetic waves or electro magnetic radiation. These waves do not require any medium for their propagation and can move in vacuum. The increasing order of wavelengths of these radiations is given as below : Cosmic rays < g – rays < X – rays < Ultraviolet light < Visible light < Infrared rays < Micro waves < Radio waves.
(a) What is the relation between wavelength, wave number, frequency and velocity?
OR
The three dimensional structure of any orbital is given by which Quantum number?
(b) The radio 93.5 FM, broadcasts on a frequency of 1,370 kHz (kilo hertz). What will be the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by transmitter. Also, predict which part of the electromagnetic spectrum does it belong to?
(c) When are Paschen and Brackett series displayed? Mention in which portion of electromagnetic spectrum they fall.
Answer:
(a) c = λ × u and 1/λ = \(\bar{v}\)
∴ u = c.\(\bar{v}\)
Explanation:
A wave has its wavelength denoted by lambda (λ) The number of waves that pass a given point in one second is the frequency denoted by neu (u). The number of wavelengths per unit length is the wave number neu bar (\(\bar{v}\)). The relation can be expressed as, when ‘c’ is the speed of electromagnetic radiation in vacuum.
OR
The three dimensional shape of orbital is given by Azimuthal quantum number
(b) The wavelength, λ, = c electromagnetic radiation /v frequency
On substituting the given values, we get λ = c/v
(3 × 10
8
m/s)/1370 × 10
3
/s
= 218.3 m
This value wavelength is a characteristic radio wave wavelength.
(c) When an electron transitions from a higher energy level (n h = 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, …) to an energy state with n l = 3, the Paschen series is seen. The Paschen series’ entire wavelength ranges inside the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The Brackett series, which has the shortest wavelength, overlaps with the Paschen series.
When an electron transitions from a higher energy level (nh = 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,…) to an energy state with nl = 4, the Brackett series is seen. The electromagnetic spectrum’s infrared region encompasses the entire wavelength range of the Brackett series.
Question 30.
Read the following passage and answer the following questions:
The variables pressure, volume, concentration and temperature may change the state of Equilibrium. The change is governed by the Le-Chatelier’s principle. The decomposition of NH3(g) can be made spontaneous by increasing the temperature and lowering pressure. In the reaction, removal of any product from the reaction mixture makes the reversible reaction irreversible and therefore, reaction proceeds to completion.

(g), the partial pressures of N
2
and H
2
are 0.80 and 0.40 atmosphere respectively at equilibrium. The total pressure of the system is 2.80 atmosphere. What is K
p
for the above reaction?
Answer:
(a) Increase in temperature will favour the forward reaction which is endothermic.
(b) Addition of inert gas at constant volume has no effect on any equilibrium reaction. When inert gas is added at constant pressure in the given reaction, it proceeds in forward direction. ∆G remains constant, but AG decreases as the reaction proceeds spontaneously in forward direction to attain equilibrium.

The following questions are long answer type and carry 5 marks each. All questions have an internal choice.
Question 31.
Attempt any five of the following:
(a) What is de Broglie wavelength for an electron with light velocity?
(b) What is angular momentum of electron in 5th shell?
(c) What is the relation between probability of finding an electron and the orbital wave function?
(d) Can we apply Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle to a stationary electron? Why or why not?
(e) Write the maximum number of electron in a sub-shell with / = 3 and n = 4.
(f) Write the maximum number of electron that can be associated with the following set of quantum numbers?
n = 3, / = 1 and ml = -1
(g) Write the maximum number of electron that can be accommodated in an atom in which the highest principal
quantum number value is 4.
Answer:
(a) Mass of electron (m) = 9.1 × Kb31 kg
Velocity of light (v) = 3.0 × 108 m/s
According to de Broglie equation,
λ = \(\frac{h}{m v}\)
= \(\frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~s}}{9.1 \times 10^{-31} \mathrm{~kg} \times 3.0 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}}\)

(c) The probability of finding an electron at a point within an atom is proportional to the square of the orbital wave function, i.e., | Ψ | 2 at that point | Ψ | 2 .
(d) No, we cannot apply Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle to a stationary electron, because velocity = 0 and so, position cannot be measured accurately.
(e) n = 4, l = 3
∴ sub shell is 4f
for l = 3, ml = -3, -2, -1,0, +1, +2, +3.
Each orbital has maximum two electrons. So, maximum number of electron in 4f sub-shell is 14.
(f) n = 3, l = 1 and ml = -1
According to this set of quantum numbers, the outermost sub-shell is 3p

Question 32.
(a) Why is benzene extra ordinarily stable though it contains three double bonds?
(b) In the presence of peroxide, addition of HBr to prepare propene takes place according to anti Markovnikov’s rule but peroxide effect is not seen in the case of HC1 and HI. Explain.
(c) How will you convert: Acetylene to chlorobenzene
OR
(a) An alkene ‘K on ozonolysis gives a mixture of ethanal and pentan-3- one. Write structure and IUPAC name of ‘A’.
(b) For the following compounds, write structural formulas and IUPAC names for all possible isomers having the number of double or triple bond as indicated:
(i) C
4
H
8
(one double bond)
(ii) C
5
H

(one triple bond)
Answer:
(a) Benzene is a hybrid of resonating structures given as:
All six carbon atoms in benzene are sp
2
hybridised. The two sp
2
hybrid orbitals of each carbon atom overlap with the sp
2
hybrid orbitals of adjacent carbon atoms to form six sigma bonds in the hexagonal plane. The remaining sp
2
hybrid orbital on each carbon atom overlaps with the s-orbital of hydrogen to form six sigma C – H bonds. The remaining unhybridised p-orbital of carbon atoms has the possibility of forming three π bonds.
The six Jt-electrons are delocalized and can move freely about the six carbon nuclei. Even after the presence of three double bonds, these delocalized ir-electrons stabilize benzene.
(b) This may be due to the fact that the H-Cl bond being stronger (430.5 kj mol -1 ) than H-Br bond (363.7 kj mol -1 ), is not cleaved by the free radical, whereas the H-I bond is weaker (296.8 kj mol -1 ) and iodine free radicals combine to form iodine molecules instead of adding to the double bond.
During ozonolysis, an ozonide having a cyclic structure is formed as an intermediate which undergoes cleavage to give the final products. Ethanal and pentan-3-one are obtained from the intermediate ozonide. Hence, the expected structure of the ozonide is:
This ozonide is formed as an addition of ozone to ‘A’. The desired structure of ‘A’ can be obtained by the removal of ozone from the ozonide. Hence, the structural formula of ‘A’ is:
The IUPAC name of ‘A’ is 3-Ethylpent-2-ene
(b) (i) The following structural isomers are possible for C
4
H
8
with one double bond:
The IUPAC name of
Compound (I) is But-l-ene,
Compound (II) is But-2-ene, and
Compound (III) is 2-Methylprop-l-ene.
(ii) The following structural isomers are possible for C

with one triple bond:
The IUPAC name of
Compound (I) is Pent-l-yne,
Compound (II) is Pent-2-yne, and
Compound (in) is 3-Methylbut-l-yne.
Question 33.
You have a mixture of three liquids A, B and C. There is a large difference in the boiling points of A and rest of the two liquids i.e., B and C. Boiling point of liquids B and C are quite close. Liquid A boils at a higher temperature than B and C and boiling point of B is lower than C. How will you separate the components of the mixture? Draw a diagram showing set up of the apparatus for the process.

Answer:
difference in boiling point. Liquid B and C have boiling points very close to each other and cannot be separated by simple distillation hence, separated by fractional distillation. Liquid B is distilled first because the order of boiling points of A, B and C are as follows:
B < C < A
Or
(a) (i) The relative adsorption of each component

value = Distance moved by the substance from base line (x)/Distance moved by the solvent from base line (y)
(ii) Nitrogen, sulphur, halogens and phosphorus present in organic compound are detected by ‘Lassaigne’s test
Distillation:
It is based on the fact that liquids having different boiling points vapourise at different temperatures. The vapours are then cooled and the liquids so formed are collected separately. This method is used to separate volatile liquids from non-volatile impurities or a mixture of those liquids that have a sufficient difference in their boiling points.
For example :
a mixture of chloroform (b.p = 334 K) and aniline (b.p = 457 K) can be separated by the method of distillation.
